The opening credits of the film only list actors from Tara Strong to Rebecca Shoichet. As per the guildlines shown in the "Template:Infobox film" page, I propose we limit the list of actors in the infobox to that, and leave the rest of the actors to the "Cast" section below, especially since some of the actors listed in the infobox aren't mentioned in the ending credits. That, or we instead link to the section within the infobox. User:Immblueversion ( talk) 20:09, 24 June 2013 (UTC)

When I was overseas serving this country, we got a shipment of my little pony movies. There was for a time (1980s I believe) that there was a little girl and a pony in this series named "Megan & Sundance" These two were so cut. They got their own action figures.

I've noticed that this edit back from June 27 caused Will Anderson's comment about score production to be removed, without providing an explanation in the edit summary.

I've found a reliable piece of evidence concerning the film release in Italy. As suspected, it won't hit theaters, but rather premiere on our digital terrestrial channel Cartoonito. No fixed date is available as of now, but premiere is apparently due to this autumn, according to this document (check out page 14). Enough to make the article? -- / Kàmi na / 15:43, 2 September 2013 (UTC)
I checked the source for the Australian release after an IP made this edit to check if said source did actually mention New Zealand, and I found that in fact it doesn't even hold for the Australian release to begin with! It's just a link to the website where the original announcement appeared, but as of now you can't find evidence that the movie was ever featured in the website (typing "Equestria Girls" in the search bar will yield no result, and the subpage with the movie info now redirects back to a generic /movies page). Best I could find were an EqD article, this one from this BAU website (both linking the aforementioned "null" page) and some YouTube evidence proving that the source used to be valid, but not anymore. The New Zealand release may be sourced via this webpage, but like the Australian one, it's bound to eventually disappear. I doubt we can provide reliable and durable sourcing with so little information, but since we know this info must be legitimate, we could rely on EqD for the time being. Problem is, EqD doesn't seem to have any posts about the New Zealand release. What to do? -- / Kàmi na / 13:20, 4 September 2013 (UTC)
I'd like to give this article a structure like G.I. Joe Extreme because it would be vague to create a main separate article for entire EQG franchise or give the toy line a separate article. Here's my idea:
JSH-alive/ talk/ cont/ mail 08:45, 12 September 2013 (UTC)
But it would be misleading to say 'EQG toys are based on EQG movie'. Honestly, I don't think it's right to say, for example, toy C is based on the TV series C when they are actually part of franchise C created by big corporation named A. I'd like to use "associated with", "linked to" or "tie-in to" in that case. That's a different situation from Ang Lee's film adaptation of Brokeback Mountain where the author of original short novel didn't expect to earn much money when writing that novel. JSH-alive/ talk/ cont/ mail 18:56, 15 September 2013 (UTC)
Another idea. What about having a section named "Franchise overview" right after lead section, just like Ruby Gloom TV series article? JSH-alive/ talk/ cont/ mail 12:10, 30 September 2013 (UTC)
(I'm thinking that I'd remove non-English TV broadcasts per WP:MOS-TV#Broadcast (theatrical releases outside U.S. and Canada? I'm thinking about it), but anyway) Minimax is technically a pan-Central-European channel with multiple audio tracks (while also having number of feeds for regional ads), so they may première EQG in Serbian, Czech and Romanian at the same time as Hungarian. JSH-alive/ talk/ cont/ mail 15:14, 18 September 2013 (UTC)
I'm officially confused. According to this article, EqG is going to have a theatrical release in Italy on October 6th 2013, after its TV premiere on Cartoonito (which I can confirm has happened). The source is definitely valid, though, so I guess we should add the info to the article. -- / Kàmi na / 15:58, 23 September 2013 (UTC)
By the way my dear Kamina, try to use "New section" tab next time. JSH-alive/ talk/ cont/ mail 11:32, 24 September 2013 (UTC)
This edit had me thinking quite a little. Sure enough, the removed paragraph was supported by a source; I'm reporting here for clarity's sake the three sentences we should focus on:
What perplexes me is that neither the primary nor the secondary sources seem to establish the (albeit indirect) comparison we're making out; taken out of context, Faust's twit has no value to this end, and the Daily Dot's article merely assesses a possible "oblique comparison". I for one would be okay to leave out the sentence, that is, to not rollback the IP's edit. Sourcing just doesn't look strong enough to do otherwise. -- / Kàmi na / 19:12, 4 November 2013 (UTC)

The "My Little Pony Friends" song is a special song, but not actually a deleted song mainly because Hasbro Studios Shorts uploaded it to YouTube since August 14th, 2014. As in a credits, it was passed over in favor of "A Friend For Life" song. -- Allen ( talk to me! / ctrb / E-mail me) 01:24, 28 September 2014 (UTC)
The third (film in the series/line in the franchise), Friendship Games, is coming. So, wouldn't there be a need to create a separate article about the franchise itself, covering every-neccesary-thing EQG including the toy line and other tie-in media? We could rename this article (about film) to My Little Pony: Equestria Girls (film).
P.S. How to say what everyone believes 'Hasbro wanted to jump into Monster High bandwagon so they created a cheap-looking MH rip-off called EQG, lazily relying on MLP brand' in Wikipedia style? (Yeah, we need proof, though.) JSH-alive/ talk/ cont/ mail 14:34, 17 March 2015 (UTC)
